Dominic Raab, who has been housing and planning minister since January, has been appointed Brexit Secretary, following the resignation of David Davis this morning (9 July). Kit Malthouse, MP for North West Hampshire, will replace Raab as the housing minister.

The number of build-to-rent homes that are either complete, under construction or in planning in the UK has increased by 30 per cent over the past year, according to the British Property Federation (BPF).

Housing minister Dominic Raab has announced changes to permitted development rights that mean up to five houses can be created from existing agricultural buildings on a farm, rather than the current maximum of three.
